Ginger-Hoisin Seared Shrimp

Ginger-Hoisin Seared Shrimp by Nancy Miyasaki

This recipe for pan searing shrimp is tangy and flavorful. It's not as universally popular in our family as the Garlic Lemon Butter Shrimp I've posted. But it's a close second. If you're looking for an Asian flavor, this is yummy. I adapted it from a Cooks Illustrated recipe. The shrimp will come out brown and slightly caramelized…

Asian Sloppy Joe Sliders

This is adapted from a recipe that appeared in Cuisine At Home recently. I added red onion and used more cilantro than the original. It is an easy dish to prepare in a hurry for a weeknight meal. The water chestnuts and hoisin sauce add an Asian flair to the standard Sloppy Joe. I served the dish with Myra Byanka's Napa Asian…

Shrimp & Bok Choy

Shrimp & Bok Choy by Nanette

This is a light and easy meal and healthy, too. I used onions, but scallions or green onions would do. Fresh ginger, soy sauce and rice vinegar gives it the perfect Asian flavor. The "heat" should be to your taste. *wash any grit from bok choy and remove just the root. Slice stem and leaves lengthwise, then chop

Gujarati Vegetables With Lime And Cilantro!

Gujarati Vegetables With Lime And Cilantro! by kathy gori

Ever since Paula Wolfert gave me a Clay Coyote Flameware skillet the other day, I've been jonesing to use it. However, at the same time I got the skillet, I also got all inspired to fix some meatless Indian raw salads that I'd learned of from a cookbook she'd also given me. I kept staring at the beautiful Flameware skillet up on the…

Meatless Monday, Take The Corn Off The Cob! by kathy gori

What should greet us this morning as we returned from our early morning coffee run to the Basque Boulangerie but a large turkey vulture sitting on the branch of a tree looking down at our house. "Whoa!" I thought. What a kickoff to Meatless Monday. Whatever that big bird was looking for, he was not going to find it in my kitchen…

Gurkhali Aloo-Potatoes, Gurka Style. by shalini

Newlywed and nearly dead. That was what I was when I first heard of Gurkhali Aloo. I say nearly dead because of the fact that while soup and sandwiches would suffice as dinner in my parents’ house, with the in laws, dinner meant loads of work! I loved to bake and make soups (out of a packet) and sandwiches were easy. But here,…
